Product Description
Kate OBeirne is fed up with women who make the world worse.
Fueled by their persecution fantasies, modern feminists have been calling for radical social engineering to eliminate any differences between the sexes. They insist that any sex differences are the result of social construction, not biology. So they want boys and men to be reprogrammed and treated for their pathology. Many of these women are public figures who use their notoriety in acting, pop music, television, or politics to spout unfounded bad ideas and harebrained schemes: Jane Fonda, Whoopi Goldberg, Hillary Clinton, Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Maureen Dowd, and many more. Kate OBeirne captures the radical feminists in their own words, explains why theyve got it all wrong, and shows why they have to be stoppedbefore they do even more damage to our schools, families, workplaces, and sports. BACKCOVER: Anyone still operating under the delusion that feminist is synonymous with pro-woman should find this [book] a useful reality check.
The Wall Street Journal
Thank you, Kate OBeirne! With wit and smarts she drives a stake through the heart of radical feminism, naming names, and takes down the modern sisterhood in a fearless, funny, and factual way. And its long overdue. Know your enemy. Buy this gutsy book!
Rush Limbaugh
What a romp of a book. Funny and smart and typical of the shrewd, informed analysis we relish from Kate OBeirne.
Peggy Noonan, author of John Paul the Great
Once again, Kate OBeirnes insights on politics and the culture make us think, laugh, and stand up and cheer. Rolling back the influence of the false prophets of feminism and grrrrrl power takes facts, passion, and intellectall of which we find in this important book.
Laura Ingraham, author of Shut Up & Sing
Some women protest,Im a feminist, just not a radical feminist. Kate OBeirne is impatient with such qualifications. She is not any kind of feminist, and when you finish her sparkling new book, Women Who Make the World Worse, you wont be one either.
Mona Charen, syndicated columnist
Women Who Make the World Worse is, to be sure, an entertaining, often humorous expose of the modernist feminist movement, but at the same time, its a sober wake-up call.
David Limbaugh, syndicated columnist
OBeirne brings wit and common sense to bear on the weird and rancorous world of orthodox feminism she has written a rousing, scintillating, and badly needed book.

 Woman Who Makes the World Worse: Kate O'Beirne June 6, 2008

I saw this book in my library and thought I could potentially accomplish one of two things by making myself read it all the way through: either give an honest shot at hearing what someone on the other end of the argument has to say about the issue, or potentially entertain myself if the book was bad enough.
I ended up being only a little entertained and extremely agitated at how poorly this author makes her arguments and offends her readers by expecting them to accept her "facts" when they're so full of fallacies and missing information that it would take another 200-page book to cite and explain them all.
To start with, I'd say at least half of the statistics and information she uses is from no earlier than the 70's (different kind of country back in those days, lady!). She gives examples that completely contradict her claim of how feminism is unnecessary and "destructive" in some parts of her book (if you're curious, a pretty good one is on page 95). Her lists of what "destructive" actions feminists have done are pointless, since most people would just look through said lists and think, "hmm, I don't think I've EVER thought that awareness of domestic violence was a problem...actually, how are any of these things bad again?" She makes statements that are supposed to be "factual" but in actuality are just opinions that are skewed with half-truths and horrible "cause and effect" logic. The only way anyone could appreciate this book is if they already agreed with her views in the first place, because she doesn't do a good job proving her case otherwise.
I'd say that out of the entire book, if you're looking for logical, sound arguments that are worth considering for the other side's point of view, maybe twelve pages are worth reading. And I don't mean entire pages; more like two or three sentences per page, or something close to that sort.
 This book explains a lot April 11, 2008

This is a very interesting book. It explains a lot about our society and how it change by women who have an agenda and want to destroy the family, and our society as we know it.
The author goes into interesting details about some of the women's upbringing and past that shed light on why they promote and come up with such angry and vicious ideas towards family and everything that society sees as being worthy.
This book will open your eyes.
Fantastic analysis of modern feminism's Jihad against the most prized institutions of the free world March 18, 2008
9 out of 13 found this review helpful
I'm sure no intelligent reader of the reviews of this book will regard any of the single-star reviews posted by those gender Mujahadeen who responded so faithfully to the call of their Ayatollah to wage Holy Jihad against one of the most positive literary contributions to the achievement of freedom and true equality in recent years. Their single star votes may have helped decrease this book's ratings, but to all those out there who've actually read it, they've all just revealed their collective idiocy, clearly not even having opened the book they attack with such religious fervour. All it required was a little encouragement from a representative of America's gender Taliban, and the Mujahadeen were available in droves in their efforts to suppress freedom and true equality in their typical fashion.
However, that is the usual behaviour of those opposing people like Kate O'Beirne, and they give all sensible people one more reason to oppose their attempts to block constructive criticism. This book is a fantastic objective analysis of what has become one of western democracy's most pernicious movements, a she-wolf in sheep's clothing which is helping ruin the lives of hundreds of millions of normal men and women with it's blundering ignorance and arrogance. Hats off to Kate O'Beirne for risking all to help spread the truth behind this pseudo-progressive movement, such a sorry remnant of history's once-proud women's movement, which achieved so much for all men and women. Modern Taliban Feminism spits in the faces of those brave women, and it is imperative that all interested in a positive future for humanity join forces with Kate and, with the aid of knowledge, wisdom and understanding, help to beat down one of the most disturbing forces currently afflicting Western society, one which is ruining our society in the name of doing good. Buy this book ASAP, and check out the Mujahadeen reviewers below if you need any further recommendations - their mini-Jihad, weak as it was, only shows what a nerve the truth can touch. How many offer data that conflicts with Kate's?
excellent presentation of exhaustive research and documentation March 4, 2008

While I didn't love the book, it is an incredible effort on kate's part to portray her views on feminism. Anyone who calls this book 'unsupported' clearly did not read it. It is fine to disagree with her, but it is NOT fine to NOT support her right to author this book. What is the problem with raging liberals and dissenting opinion? It seems that they are the fascists when they go to extreme lengths to keep people from reading/hearing people like Kate O'beirne and other conservatives (I'm hip to the 'let's get the 5-star rating to the bottom so that nobody wants to buy this book' effort). It's fine to not support Kate, but by God, support her right to express her views. This is AMERICA!!!
I know a little bit about Kate, and she is so smart, so educated, so successful, and seems to be so lovable as a person....someone a girl can look up to. Young girls need role models like kate o'beirne
Utter Nonsense. October 20, 2007

Blaming our social ills on the feminist is narrow-minded and stupid. Many of the women sited are based on the extreme perspective and do not have massive followings or have a large impact on the average American woman. Most American women fall somewhere in between hard-core feminist and radical-right zombies. This probably never would occur to the author: "the reason most women are attempting to gain financial security in their own right, is not because they don't want a mother-at-home environment, but rather, many got tired of being 'dumped' by their husbands for someone younger, and/or more beautiful after years of 'family dedication'". And if "being dumped" were the only issue, that in itself is not the real problem as much as divorce usually leaves the woman and children in a state of financial poverty. The government offers little to protect them or their children. Perhaps a country such as ours, where men who do not pay child-support suffer no ill effects on their credit-ratings and many spend a life-time eluding their financial responsibilities, contributes a dramatic portion to the family break-down. Most mothers I know, hate having to leave their children to work, but they do not have a choice, and many others just do not trust the man to be there until death, so why sit around waiting for the shoe to fall, when in the end, poverty is what surely awaits them? So, if anyone is to blame, it's a governmental system that allows men to abandon their responsibilities to their wives and children with little consequences and authors like this one who deter the public attention away from the real issues. It is so much simpler to site a small group and place blame on them, while neglecting the root of the problem and actually having to offer some constructive solutions that may actually work. I suppose if 'selling books' resolves the authors financial issues, it justifies putting other women in a lose/lose situation.
